Tips to remember when you the pet owner must submit a claim.

• Understand your claim submissions ahead of time. When the time comes to submit a claim you’ll understand what you need to do. Also knowing if this particular accident/illness is covered under your chosen plan will help in saving time when it comes to dealing with the insurance company.
• Save any bills, receipts, and invoices associated with the illness, or accident. Keeping a folder of this will keep everything in place. When proof of payment is required everything will be at hand and easy to submit. Making copies might also be helpful because many insurers will ask for a copy of the bills and you will want to keep one for yourself.
• Call your insurer. The earlier they know about a claim the faster they can be prepared to approve it. Also don’t be afraid to ask questions about the claim processes. The insurer’s customer service is there to help you in any way possible.
• Check the insurer’s website. Many insurers offer claim forms online that you can print out and fax over, avoiding the wait of sending it in the mail.
• When in doubt ask the Vet’s office. Vet’s offices deal with insurance companies all the time and will be willing to help with the process.
